Chrysler Lug Nut Torque Specs

Chrysler lug nut torque specifications: a comprehensive guide.

Ensuring proper lug nut torque is crucial for safe driving. Over-tightening can damage the threads and warp the rotors, while under-tightening can lead to loose wheels, potentially causing serious accidents. This guide provides comprehensive information on Chrysler lug nut torque specifications and safe tightening procedures, when changing tires, or doing any other work that requires wheels to be removed and re-installed.

Understanding Torque Specifications:

• Torque: Measured in pound-feet (lb-ft), torque indicates the twisting force required to properly tighten a lug nut.
• Chrysler Recommendations: Always refer to your Chrysler vehicle's owner's manual for the exact torque specifications for your specific model and wheel size.

Chrysler Lug Nut Torque Specs by Model (Reference Table):

Safe tightening procedure:.

• Engage the Parking Brake: Ensure your vehicle is parked on a level surface and the parking brake is firmly engaged.
• Loosen Lug Nuts: Slightly loosen the lug nuts using the lug wrench in a star pattern (clockwise order). Do not completely remove the lug nuts at this stage.
• Raise the Vehicle: Safely raise the vehicle using a jack and secure it with jack stands. Refer to your owner's manual for designated jack points.
• Tighten Lug Nuts: Using the torque wrench and socket wrench, tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern to the exact torque specification mentioned in your owner's manual. Double-check each lug nut to ensure they are all tightened properly.
• Lower the Vehicle: Carefully lower the vehicle and remove the jack stands.
• Re-torque: After driving for a short distance (around 50 miles), it's recommended to re-torque the lug nuts to ensure they haven't loosened due to settling.

Additional Tips:

• Never use an impact wrench for final tightening of lug nuts.
• Invest in high-quality tools with proper specifications for your Chrysler model.
• If you are unsure about any step in the process, consult a qualified mechanic.

Maintaining Safety:

• Always prioritize safety when working on your vehicle.
• Ensure the vehicle is stable on jack stands before attempting any work on the wheels.
• If you lack the necessary tools or expertise, it's recommended to seek professional assistance from a mechanic.

By following these guidelines and adhering to the recommended torque specifications, you can ensure the safe and proper tightening of your Chrysler's lug nuts. Remember, consulting your Chrysler's owner's manual is paramount for obtaining the most accurate and model-specific information.

See Dodge Journey wheel fitment information for other model years:

The size of the hole in the center of a wheel is known as the center bore or centerbore.

Offset is the distance in millimetres from the centre line of the wheel to the wheel’s mounting face. Given that the mounting face can be either in front of or behind the centreline, the offset can be either neutral, positive or negative.

The Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD) is the diameter of the circle which passes through the centre of all the studs, wheel bolts or wheel rim holes

hp - Mechanical horsepower kW - Kilowatts PS - Metric horsepower

Wheel backspace is the distance from a wheel's mounting surface to the back edge of the wheel.

Tire pressure is a vehicle's recommended cold tire inflation pressure. It is measured in bars or PSI (pounds per square inch).

A sales region is a global automotive region in which a vehicle was officially sold or is still being sold.

Ex.: 7J x 15 Rim width (inches) x rim diameter (inches)

ISO standard Ex.: M12 x 1.25 Nominal diameter (mm) x pitch (mm)

UN-series Ex.: 9/16" - 18 UNF Thread size (in) - thread pitch UNF - Unified National Fine Thread

Example: 215/55 R16 91 T

215 is the tire width in mm 55 is the ratio of profile height to width or simply 'profile'. With the same width, the larger this indicator, the higher the tire will be and vice versa 16 - diameter of the wheel (disk) in inches. (It is the diameter, not the radius!). This is the inner size of the tire or the outer size of the rim 91 - load index. This is the level of maximum permissible load on one wheel T - tire speed index

The method of attaching a wheel to a hub: wheel nuts or wheel bolts

The torque value specified by the manufacturer for wheel bolts or wheel nuts, which is to be set when tightening on the torque tool (torque setting). A rotational force given in Newton metres (Nm) or foot-pounds (ft-lbs), wheel torque measures lug nut / bolts tightness

The tires included with a new vehicle when it is purchased. OE tires are specifically chosen by the vehicle manufacturer to make the most of the vehicle's performance characteristics.

Here's a link to TireRack... you will need to know your stud size.

http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/techpage.jsp?techid=107

I'm using the same studs that came with my stock 19" which I'm not to sure of.

The 19 inch tires on an 09 are torqued at 100 foot pounds

• 5 weeks later...

I have the 19" Chrome Clad wheels on my 2011, is the torque spec still 100lbs? I see that most manufacturers recommend 80-90 depending on size of the vehicle. 100lbs just sounds a little high. Can anyone help me with this. Thanks!

My owner's manual specs 95 ft lbs for the 19" wheels on my '13 R/T...

Accuracy of the wrench, surface condition of the fasteners, including corrosion, oils and moisture makes the number an approximation, at best. 90, 95, 100 or even 110 means nothing. It just gets you 'in the range'.
